Hi,
I need to receive XML files (of fixed format) to my RPGLE program (not free format RPG) and do some calculations. Can I do this without purchasing any tools (free tools can be used)? Please let me know if anyone has done something similar.

To Yorkshireman and TopKat:
Why would you want to explore XML-INTO and XML-SAX? Well, if all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail. And maybe XML-INTO is a little crude (at this version) but everything starts somewhere... Also, what if there becomes a time that there is an intellectual property issue using Klements tools and you don't know anything else...
Just trying to say it is always good to know options...

BigKat has a good point.
You want to avoid any potential future IPR issues. So, as first suggested, write your own with RPG.
I have a bit of code which handles screens down at the metal level, and if ever I want to handle all 1920 characters individually I know how to do it. Meanwhile though, I'll just use DDS, or, better, a code generator.
Incidentally, it's also worth discovering that Bob licences his software, in order to make a living, and Scott Klements's is already in the public domain - so you will 'own' the source code.
If it were me, I'd experiment with the native RPG, then I know which open source software I'd download.
- No affiliation to either of these toolsets -
